Elon Musk is an icon among many, and even moreso in China; dozens of companies use the “Elon Musk” name in brands that are not authorized by the Tesla founder and Time magazine’s man of the year for 2021.
A video made the rounds recently, supposedly showing a Chinese man that looks like Elon Musk.Very quickly, the doppleganger was named Yi Long Musk and the name and video turned viral.

Yi Long Musk – Chinese doppelganger of Elon Musk
Alas, the alleged doppelganger of Elon Musk is not real but just a short deepfake video. That didn’t stop someone from registering the matching domain, YiLongMusk.com and putting it on Sedo.
The asking price? $150,000 dollars.
With that much money, one can get 3 Tesla cars so good luck with the sale.
